Conclusions

Strength athletes who use AAS show significantly different cardiac dimensions and biventricular systolic dysfunction and impaired ventricular inflow as compared to non-athletes and non-AAS-using strength athletes. Increased ventricular volume and mass did not exceed that of strength-endurance athletes. These findings may help raise awareness of the consequences of AAS use.

One Response to Study corelates steroid use with ventricular dysfunction

A great article that alerts the potential for erectil dysfunction as a result of steroid use. Bottom line, don’t do steroids. You may see short term results but it could have a long term effect on your sex life and result in ed dysfunction.
